The Phoenix Project captivated more than half a million readers. Now comes The Unicorn Project!
"The Unicorn Project is amazing, and I loved it 100 times more than the Phoenix Project ..." - FERNANDO CORNAGO, Senior Director of Platform Engineering, Adidas
"Gene Kim does a masterful job by showing how ... the efforts of many create lasting business advantages for everyone." - DR. STEVEN SPEAR, author of The High-Velocity Edge, principal professor of MIT and director of HVE LLC.
"The Unicorn Project is so smart, so good, so madly enlightening!" - CORNELIA DAVIS, Vice President of Technology of Pivotal Software, Inc., Author of Cloud Native Patterns
This highly anticipated follow-up to the best-selling title, The Phoenix Project, takes a look at Parts Unlimited, this time from the perspective of software development.
In The Unicorn Project, we follow Maxine, a lead developer and lead architect, while in exile to the Phoenix Project, to the horror of her friends and colleagues, as punishment for contributing to a payroll cut. She tries to survive in what feels like a ruthless and indifferent bureaucracy and work within a system where no one can do anything without committees, paperwork and endless approvals.
One day, he is approached by a group of misfits who say they want to overthrow the existing order, free developers, return the joy to technology work and allow the business to win at a time of digital disruption. To her surprise, she is increasingly immersed in this movement, and finally becomes one of the leaders of the Rebellion, which places her in the sights of some familiar and very dangerous enemies.
The Age of Software is here, and another mass extinction event is coming: this is a story about rebel developers and business leaders working together, competing against time to innovate, survive and thrive in a moment of unprecedented uncertainty and opportunity. .
